From her days growing up in LA with a father who was songwriter and pianist for Dean Martin, to mixing with folk rock stars of the late 1960s and ‘70s like Neil Young, and marriage to Andy Summers, Robin moved to Massachusetts built a band and went on record 3 albums on Warner Bros. as Robin Lane and The Chartbusters. Videos on the new MTV during those years and into the early ‘80s helped launch the band nationally. Robin has championed women’s trauma healing with her Songbird Sings Organization. Motherhood, along with decades of writing and performing have brought Robin to this point in her amazing life. So many stories, so many insights learned and healing shared, so much more to come… This unique evening will fill you with the songs, the stories and opportunity to get to know Robin Lane.
Robin’s new album, “Dirt Road to Heaven” on Boston’s Red On Red Records, has received praises from all over the world. Germany’s MusikReviews says the album’s “songwriting impresses with high quality, the musical implementation is unreservedly enjoyable.” Alternate Root’s Lee Zimmerman cites the album’s “confidence and assurance conveyed through the effort overall.”
British Columbia’s “Go” writes “There is a lot
of life in the songs… a couple of ballads that hit you down deep.” Locally,
Metronome’s Drew McManus calls “Dirt Road to Heaven” “a collection of
American music that rivals Brandi Carlile and Joan Baez.” While Boston Herald’s
Brett Milano says that Robin Lane is ‘still the musical friend who’ll join you
walking that dirt road” or in Marblehead on November 17.
